A winding apparatus and method for continuously winding yam onto a bobbin.
The apparatus having a winding drum with winding spindles mounted thereon.
The drum continuously rotates during the wind up process in which the
package gets built up on the bobbin received on the winding spindle. A
contact roller positioned upstream of the winding drum and contacting the
bobbin and a drive for independently rotating the winding drum and the
winding spindle with a sensors for sensing the respective rotational speed
of the contact roller and the winding spindle. The signal of the sensors
use to regulate the drive of the winding drum and the winding spindle such
that the winding drum is continuously rotated during the winding process
and the winding spindle is continuously moved away from the contact roller
as the amount of yarn wound on the bobbin increase so that the contact
roller remains in peripheral contact with the bobbin throughout the
winding process.
